Alive
The morning is a sign
From the other side
That everything's alright
The mistakes that I made
Just yesterday
Disappear in the sun's light
Start searching on the floor
And through every drawer
Looking for my favorite disguise
I could spend all day
Wishing my time away
But would that really be wise?
Oh, no.
(Chorus)
I'm just your everyday, ordinary man
Working my way through life
Breaking my back, looking past the fact
That nobody makes it out alive
Oh, oh, oh, is the race really worth the prize?
Oh, oh, oh, and nobody is going to make it out alive
I want you to see
The world with me
So you can understand
All the things
In my life
That made me what I am
And I will do
The same for you
Until the end has come
Until then
Pick up your fists again
Because the war still hasn't been won
Oh, no.
(Chorus)
(Guitar Solo)
Money moves the clock
On the rich man's watch
But money isn't his crime
It's coming to the end
And only wondering
How to make another dime
I'd give it all up
Because you can't buy love
The best things in life are free
I know I promised you, girl
But this glittering world
Is getting the best of me
Oh, no.
(Chorus)
Oh, oh, oh, is the race really worth the prize?
Oh, oh, oh, and nobody is going to make it out alive
